After six unforgettable weeks travelling across the USA, Mexico and Canada, the journey finally comes to an end.

From the colour and anticipation of opening day in Miami to the unforgettable atmosphere of the Azteca Stadium, from conversations with supporters from 40 different nations to the highs and heartbreak of following England to the semi-finals, this is a chance to reflect on everything the World Cup became.

What did football reveal about identity, connection and belonging? Why did strangers seem so willing to talk? Can we celebrate where we come from without drifting into division? And what happens when the greatest sporting spectacle on earth exists alongside visible inequality and poverty?

This isn't a review of the tournament.

It's a reflection on the people, places and stories that made it unforgettable.

Thank you for listening, sharing, commenting and travelling alongside me. Whatever FAN48 becomes next, I hope you'll stay connected.
